Unveiled at the 2016 New York International Auto Show this past March, it was announced earlier today that the 2017 Impreza had garnered the Car of the Year Japan 2017 award by the Japan Car of the Year Committee – beating out the new Toyota Prius by 29 votes.

Because of the additional headlight rating requirement, fewer vehicles qualified for the Top Safety Pick+ rating for 2017 although according to Adrian Lund, IIHS president, "Manufacturers are focusing on improving this basic safety equipment, and we're confident that the winners' list will grow as the year progresses."

The lease deal, itself, is pretty sweet.
A cap cost reduction (sometimes erroneously referred to as a "down payment") of $2,499 plus the first month's payment of $369 (plus any applicable state and local taxes) plus tax registration and official fees gets you a 36-month, 20,000 mile per year lease. Yup, you read that right, 20,000 miles per year.
